WannaBe: Be (very) interesting if Trump manages to end Ukraine war too. And/or bring some calm between Iran/Israel. Teddy Rooselvelt won the Peace Prize for the Russo-Japanese War. And Obama won the prize for ending?? The Peace Prize have always the more political, like when Y. Arafat shared

  WannaBe: There is a Jewish (themed?) hotel/casino on the Strip that is in the pipeline.

According to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GX...

The hotel will be called King David. Oy Vey

Also, if you visit Vegas, be sure to bring some traveler's cheques or good ol' cash, because ATMs are now charging anywhere from $9.99 to $11.99

And be prepared to pay for parking, as many strip casinos are now charging.

  chancho: Thanks <Wannabe>.

I appreciate your thoughts.

I have solar panels and enough electricity to get me by.

There are others (who have electric generators) getting by, but they need to buy gasoline.

And then some who don't have either.

Grin and bear it, I guess...

  WannaBe: Not good (for me), "Section 31" the latest Star Trek Long Form (a.k.a. movie) direct to stream, is getting bad reviews, <HAMMERED on line>.

It's due to hit/released by Paramount+ in a few hours. Ugh. Will still view it and give commentary.

(Whether I watch the whole "movie" or not, is to be determined)

  WannaBe: Okay, let's give this "Section 31" a try. (Reviews I've read so far have not been kind...)

Got my din-din in the oven, got meself a movie-watching beverage.

Engage!!

  WannaBe: Section 31 Review (No spoilers)

Overall: B maybe B-

Story: Not (too) bad, hard to "create" a story from a plot (DS9) and then Discovery

Dialog: F------- Holy crap, don't hire this script writer on another Star Trek project. Period

Action Sequences: A+ (C'mon, it's got Michelle Yeoh)

Story - Continuity, I think I spotted a couple of "Ugh"s but it's only one watch

Final Comments:

1. Closing scene caught me by surprise. Cute cameo.
2. Do I want this to be a series, like Paramount originally planned? <NO>
3. I can't wait for Strange New World to be streamed in a few month

  Open Defence: Hi <Wannabe> is Section 31 a continuation of any of the Discovery Scenarios?

Of the new stuff Lower Decks is my fave followed by Strange New Worlds and loved the cross over espisode

Jan-26-25
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: <OD> Yeah, it's Empress Georgiou (Michelle Yeoh) and Terrans. But that's where the connection with Discovery ends.

Love, love, love SNW, not into cartoon (Lower Deck) version. The cross-over episode was pretty funny. "RIKER!!"

The only thing I liked about the musical episode was the K-pop Klingons. Fav one from season one is the fairy tale story episode.

  Open Defence: that fairy tale episode is one of my favs too :)

will check out Section 31 thanks!

  WannaBe: For as long as I've know OD, (going way back to when we were on the team cooresp game) never knew that she was into ST.

Or may I just forgot and it slipped my mind.
